After a request from the WRU liason officer for the South African touring team, some of the VPs and ex Chairman of the club, took on a challange from the four players, and we are pleased to say we won by one point in the match, hope the same happens on Sat 8th Nov.

All,
Yes its that time of year again when the VP's start selling their Christmas raffle tickets and as we all know, there are many, many great prizes on offer. Last year over 40% of the winners came from the M&J and that's a credit to all those team managers who sold tickets and all those people who purchased them so well done.
The VP's as you will no doubt be aware work extremely hard to raise funds for Pentyrch RFC and their Christmas raffle is one such event.
Each team manager has 5 sheets to sell and each sheet has 90 boxes which cost 20p each so that's £18 per sheet in totoal and £90 per age group which if all 25 players parents purchased £1 each then you are over half way there but I am sure, as always, some will want to purchase a few more which is great.
The M&J do not do a Christmas raffle as we support the VP's raffle because there really are some good prizes and we always seem to have a good few winners so please help the team managers out by purchasing tickets.
Please would ALL team managers forward this message on to their respective parents please and ask them how many boxes they would like to buy with a minimum of £1 per parent if possible. If you do this via e-mail then most parents will come back and pledge some money so you can just write their names in the boxes and collect the money when you see them which is much easier than trying to get around everyone on training nights and games although there will always be a few who are quite shy and who will need a bit of coaxing !!!
